CVE-2022-26809 and CVE-2022-22019

The April 2022 Windows updates included a fix for a critical remotely exploitable vulnerability in Windows Remote Procedure Call Runtime (CVE-2022-26809). Mitja Kolsek then discovered that the fix addresses an integer overflow in RPC packets to the RPC server. With a very large number of RPC packets sent to the server, the buffer size on the server side can exceed 4 GB (max. representable with 32 bits). An overflow offers the risk that new RPC packets overwrite data and code, which could at least theoretically be used by an attacker to execute arbitrary code during the RPC call. Kolsek described the details in this blog post.

New micro patch for the vulnerabilities

After analyzing the vulnerabilities, the team at ACROS Security, which has been providing the 0Patch solution for years, developed micro-patches for Windows versions that are no longer officially supported and is now making them available to customers. Mitja Kolsek drew attention to this solution via Twitter.
